Precious Lord

Precious Lord

 

Precious Lord we declare your worth

Youíre the fairest of this world and heaven above

Precious Lord, may you reign on this earth

May our day see the birth of the age of your love

 

May your kingdom come

May your will be done

As in heaven so in this place

Precious Lord we adore

And exalt your name

And declare the wonders of your grace

 

There is no other fame that compares with your fame

And our hearts desire the world toÝ know

We proclaim and acclaim your matchless name

Precious Lord may it ever be so!

 

Precious Lord the joy before you was set

You took up the cross and you pray for us yet

You took all our blame and you bore all our shame

And so you were raised up to your throne.

 

May your kingdom come

May your will be done

As in heaven so in this place

Precious Lord we adore

And exalt your name

And declare the wonders of your grace
